Drafting ________ was the best idea ever.

Postby OneLoveBoomer » Mon Apr 13, 2009 9:43 pm

In terms of draft picks I made this year on several times (particularly in terms of where I drafted 'em), I'm pretty ecstatic that I drafted Corey Hart. Especially considering where your Rios's and Kemp's of the world are drafted, Hart has started the season strong and I'm thinking big things are coming this season.

One week into the season, any other super-fantastic draft choices that make you proud of your draft?

I have to thank Yahoo or drafting Hart for me, my computer went down temporarily while I was in the draft and when it came back up I had C Hart. I would have never taken him and I was dissapointed when I had him. I tried to trade him but no takers. Thank god............

Good call on Corey Hart.

I'm happy to say Aaron Harang (RD21) for right now after. Especially after he killed me in 2008.

Also like Josh Johnson and Paul Maholm for the value.

The correct answer is Kosuke Fukudome with pick 245.
He had a tremendous week.
If he can stay in the 2 or 3 spot and maintain a decent SB green light, it's on for young and old :-L :-L


Honourable mention: Picking M-Cab over Reyes with pick 5. ;-)
